History of the chess.com

1995: The domain Chess.com was originally set up by Aficionado, a company based in Berkeley, California, to sell a piece of chess tutoring software called "Chess Mentor".
2005: Internet entrepreneur Erik Allebest and partner Jarom ("Jay") Severson bought the domain name and assembled a team of software developers to redevelop the site as a chess portal.

2007: The site was relaunched.The site was heavily promoted via social media.
2009: Chess.com announced a takeover of a similar chess social networking site, chesspark.com. Chesspark founders Jack Moffitt and Brian Zisk had moved to work on a web search startup.

October 2013: Chess.com acquired the Amsterdam-based chess news site chessvibes.com, which provided coverage for chess tournaments. It was founded and owned by Dutch chess journalist Peter Doggers in February 2006.
2014: The site announced that over a billion live games had been played on the site, including 100 million correspondence games.
January

2016: Chess.com announced "v3", the two-year overhaul of its previous interface. The site introduced new features including computer analysis of games, and the chess variants of crazyhouse, three-check chess, king of the hill, chess960 and bughouse.
June

2017: The 2,147,483,647th (= 231-1) game was played, which caused the iOS app to stop working for those with 32-bit Apple devices. This occurred because of an integer overflow problem whereby the number was too large to be represented in the number of storage bits that were used.
